Description

Renal cell carcinoma (RCC) is characterized by a potential for unpredictable metastatic pattern and a capacity for delayed recurrence years after apparently curative surgical resection. Metastatic spread most commonly involves the lungs, bone, and lymph nodes, and involvement of the contralateral ureter is exceptionally rare, particularly when occurring as a true metachronous lesion years after primary tumor resection.
